A Fayette man

will stand trial Monday in Fayette County State Court for several violations

of county development regulations, including three counts of ignoring

stop work orders issued by county staff.

Anthony J.

Carter, who is well-known for previous bouts with local authorities, is

accused of violating three stop work orders, grading without a land disturbance

permit, covering a sewer system without an inspection and installing a

used water line at property he is developing on the Ga. Highway 85 connector

near Massengale Road. Carter has pleaded not guilty to the charges and

requested a jury trial in Fayette State Court.

According to

court documents, Carter first violated a stop work order for his property

between Dec. 13 and Feb. 1. He also violated stop work orders between

Feb. 1 and 13, and most recently between Feb. 15 and 22, the documents

say.

Court documents

also indicated that when Carter was cited for grading without a land disturbance

permit in late January, his activities caused water to back up onto county

right of way.

Carter claims

in court documents that his property is exempt from the land disturbance

permit and an on-site sewer management system was not installed.

The County

Commission is slated to hear his appeal on the stop work order at its

regular meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday at the County Administrative Complex.
